Re: Gonzalo Rivera Garcia v. Comm’r of Soc. Sec.
20 Civ. 7201 (AEK)
Dear Judge Krause:
Pursuant to the schedule in the above-referenced Social Security case, the administrative
record is due on April 2, 2021. We write respectfully to request, with the consent of plaintiff’s
counsel, that the time to file the record be extended for 60 days, until June 1, 2021. The reason
for this request is the Social Security Administration (“SSA”) needs more time to prepare the
record. As a result of the pandemic SSA has had to redesign its business process to produce
records remotely, and is also faced with the challenge of a significant increase in the number of
new cases filed. One prior adjournment was granted in this case. We appreciate the Court’s
consideration of this request.
Respectfully,
APPLICATION GRANTED.
Dated: April 1, 2021

AUDREY STRAUSS
United States Attorney
